Arduino + Stepless Joystick + Motor ~ What to think about?

[Unikron]

Hi!

I have a Arduino MEGA connected to a H-bridge, with wich I can steer a motor forward and backward with two buttons, it works fine. Now I have found a analog joystick (attached the specfile of it here) and I would like to control the motor steplessly back and forth with this joystick instead of the buttons, so that I can vary the speed. :o

Does anyone have a good guide for this? And some recommendations, what to think about and how to approach it?

Best regards from The Arduino Beginner from Sweden

Well the wig-wag version is the one to go for. You can use the digital output to enforce the dead zone,
and the analog value needs to be decoded into direction and output values for the motor driver.

Since you've not said anything about the H-bridge can't say much more...
